Russia To Re-open Trade Mission In Nigeria by fnep2smooth(m): 6:29pm On Jul 24, 2014 |
Russian Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr Nikolay Udovincheko, says Russian Trade Mission to Nigeria will be reopened to promote trade and economic ties between the two countries. Udovincheko said in Abuja that the embassy was also working towards opening a cultural centre in Nigeria to promote cultural diplomacy between both countries. The ambassador said Russia considered Nigeria to be a strategic partner in Africa because of its numerous opportunities in human and natural resources. The ambassador noted bad reportage of some issues in Nigeria by international media. He also noted that the mass media play a major role in defining world politics, adding that Russia was keen on sustaining its cooperation with Nigeria in areas such as the media, culture and economy. He said that a crew from Russia would be in Nigeria soon to do a documentary on Nollywood, a key economic driver in the country. Udovincheko applauded the bilateral ties between the two countries in the education sector which, he noted, had facilitated the training of hundreds of Nigerians in different fields in Russian universities. He explained that the quantum of trade between the two countries remained less than 250 million dollars annually despite the cordial relations enjoyed for over 50 years source wefmng.com/index.php/news/foreign-affairs/item/2695-russia-to-re-open-trade-mission-in-nigeria# |
